This post brought back some memories. mIRC is actually the first software I ever purchased as a teenager in the mid 90’s. I don’t remember who introduced me to IRC chatting, but I remember really being into mIRC scripting when I was in high school. I remember scripting a bunch of bots that I used in channels that I would participate in.

The post from the Internet Archive mentioned it was still being worked on. I checked out the mIRC website and sure enough, there have been a few releases in 2025 already. That is surprising to me since I don’t really hear about people hanging out in mIRC chatrooms anymore. Guess it is still a thing for some. That’s pretty awesome.
